Summary
- Call of Duty insider Ghost of Hope teases that Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 will feature the classic TranZit and Mob of the Dead Zombies maps at launch.
- Call of Duty fans speculate that TranZit could be reimagined in Black Ops 7 as one of the largest maps ever conceived for the franchise.
- Fans are mixed on Mob of the Dead due to the map having already made a comeback as Blood of the Dead for Call of Duty: Black Ops 4.
A reputable Call of Duty insider has hinted that the classic TranZit and Mob of the Dead Zombies maps will make a return in Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 later this year. These two maps made their franchise debut in Call of Duty: Black Ops 2, and Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 is set to take place 10 years after the events of that same game.
Revealed during the 2025 Xbox Games Showcase, Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 sees the return of David Mason as the main character following the events of Black Ops 2, which is set in the year 2025. In 2035, David Mason leads a Black Ops team against "a manipulative enemy who weaponizes fear above all else," with conflicts and psychological warfare on the rise. Raul Menendez, the antagonist of Call of Duty: Black Ops 2, was teased to make a return in some capacity, and Activision confirmed that Black Ops 7 will feature a co-op campaign, the franchise's tried-and-true multiplayer component, and round-based Zombies. Details about these three modes have been scarce since the game's recent reveal, but one notable insider and leaker has shed some light on what returning Zombies fans can expect in Call of Duty: Black Ops 7.
Why Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 Zombies Fans Should Be Hyped For CoD 2025
While Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 has been a return to form for Treyarch’s Zombies mode, CoD 2025 might just bring it back to the glory days of BO3.
Only a brief snippet of Zombies footage was shown in the Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 reveal trailer, but Call of Duty insider Ghost of Hope on Twitter has teased that the popular mode will feature the beloved TranZit and Mob of the Dead Zombies maps at launch. Ghost of Hope's Twitter post has caused a lot of speculation in the community, and some fans feel justified since TranZit was supposedly shown briefly in the trailer, according to the insider. Call of Duty fans on the Gaming Leaks and Rumours Reddit also speculate that TranZit will be revamped or "reimagined" for Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 as one of the largest round-based maps ever made for the Call of Duty series.
Call of Duty Insider Ghost of Hope Teases Classic TranZit and Mob of the Dead Zombies Maps for Black Ops 7
Although there's excitement about TranZit's potential return, the Call of Duty community appears to be mixed on Mob of the Dead, since the map has already come back in the form of Blood of the Dead in Call of Duty: Black Ops 4. In addition, others are doubtful that the prison segment in the Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 teaser is related to Mob of the Dead, so some are more interested in TranZit or a potential all-new original Zombies map. It should be noted that Activision has not officially confirmed any details regarding the round-based Zombies mode in Call of Duty: Black Ops 7.
The full reveal of Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 will take place sometime this summer, but an exact date for that event hasn't been announced just yet. Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 is expected to release later this year for PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S, and it will be a day one Xbox Game Pass title. Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 might also be coming to Nintendo Switch 2, as Microsoft and Nintendo are actively working together to bring the Call of Duty franchise to Nintendo platforms for the first time in several years.
